When I click on the + sign, I do not get another tab even though an additional tab WILL open if, for example, I click on a link in an e-mail or on a site.

Before the latest upgrade, I could open a new tab by clicking on the + to the right of any open tabs. No more. Nothing happens. If I click on a link in an e-mail or on a website, however, a new tab will open. For example, if I get an e-mail from Facebook that says someone has posted and I click the link, I will get a new tab opened and Facebook will be there. Then I have both tabs open and can navigate on either with no problem. If I then click on the + sign, nothing at all happens. I am perfectly able to open Safari with Firefox running, and I can get multiple tabs going there with no effect on Firefox. That is, I can go back and forth.

I am grateful for any help! Thank you.

I cannot find that anywhere to delete it. Where do I look? I looked in the add-ons but see only ads there for ones to add-on.

Thanks.
